Coming Up
At Borgo Savaian, the cellar and the business sit under the same name. Stefano Bastiani is both winemaker and owner in Cormons, Italy, a setup that keeps production and stewardship in one set of hands. That arrangement matters in trade terms: the work is not split between back room and boardroom, but held together by the same person and the same estate.
Where They Are Now
Winemaking at Borgo Savaian runs alongside ownership, with Stefano Bastiani responsible for both the daily cellar work and the broader direction of the estate. Harvest, blending, and bottled release all sit within that same frame. The result is a house style and a business identity that are tied directly to one maker rather than divided across separate roles. Continuity is the point here. The name on the estate and the name behind the wine are the same, which gives Borgo Savaian a clear line of responsibility. Bastiani’s role links craft and oversight without separating them, so the wines read as part of one working practice rather than as detached products.
